Thank you all for your support!

That is correct. Right now we're simply focused on development and innovation. Once we're closer to our Q4 mainnet release we'll be sure to release standard guidelines for token/coin listings but we'll be working to list Bitcoin, Litecoin, NEO, ETC, and other larger blockchains first before adding small-cap tokens.

We are about to announce that our fundraising round will be closing September 1st. If you're interested in becoming an early Altcoin.io investor, I would recommend doing so soon here: https://wefunder.com/altcoinio

We've been hard at work building the future of decentralized cryptocurrency trading: instant, low-fee trades of virtually any token, all secured by the blockchain.

Here are some recent investor updates...

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback please reach out!

Thanks! There's still a good amount of work to be done but after we close our small seed round through Wefunder we're planning to reach mainnet by mid-Q4.

The main item we need to accomplish is really security tests which are incredibly expensive, but cheaper than being hacked obviously.

We also plan to expand our engineering team, support team, and operations team to ensure when we do go live we can support both novice & experience trader's questions.

Atomic Swap Wallet Beta Release

We’ve been working hard to bring atomic swaps to the masses and we’re excited to share our Atomic Swap Wallet Beta Release with the world.

Check out the Atomic Swap Wallet here: https://swap.altcoin.io

While building a decentralized exchange, we realized atomic swaps could do so much more. We could build a decentralized version of ShapeShift or Changelly — driven by a community — with more tokens, lower fees, and better security. So that’s exactly what we did. Leading us further on our mission to better trading for everyone.

A cross-chain decentralized exchange puts you in control. You can trade from your wallet without needing a centralized exchange like Binance, Bittrex, or Bitfinex. With our atomic swap wallet, you can exchange tokens without third parties and without losing control of your tokens.

What’s new with this update?
- Dozens of new tokens added
- Wallet creation & backup enabled
- Atomically swap many different tokens
- Mobile experience improved
- And much more

What’s coming up over the next month?
- More tokens added (30–40+)
- Auto order matching & order book
- Formal bug bounty for security
- Live mainnet launch

No ICO, no outside funding, no white paper (yet), we’re just working to make cryptocurrency trading more secure for everyone.

Stay tuned for more updates from the Altcoin.io team in 2018!

While there is still a lot of work to be done, we wanted you to experience the power of Atomic Swaps as soon as possible.

Some quick FAQs:

- Our beta Atomic Swap wallet is only to be used with testnet
- This means that only you can not trade real tokens yet and that this release is for testing purposes. We’d like to ensure the security of this release before allowing real tokens to be atomically swapped.
- Only Ethereum and Bitcoin can be swapped for now
- Step-by-step instructions on how to use the wallet are below
- You will always be fully in control of your tokens
- Bug bounty available (please contact us at support@altcoin.io)
- We are not conducting an ICO for this project

What improvements are coming before the end of the year?

- A decentralized order matching engine
- An option to list many different tokens
- User experience improvements iterations
- Ability to trade directly from within your existing wallet
- Mainnet version launch after security audit is completed

How does the Atomic Swap wallet work?

To trade using our Atomic Swap Wallet, follow these instructions:

The first party:

1. Deposit testnet coins by clicking “Wallet” at the top
2. (Make sure to add both ETH and BTC)
3. Choose what to exchange (e.g. BTC for ETH)
4. Enter amount of currency for exchanging (eg. 0.12 BTC)
5. System “tells” you how much ETCs you’ll get (2 ETH)
6. Click “Submit”
7. You share that link to second party

The second party:

1. Receives link from you (sent via chat, email, etc.)
2. System “tells” him that he will give 2 ETH and receive 0.12 BTC
3. He agrees by clicking on “I agree” button
4. System checks “Wallet” to see if funds are available for exchange
5. Atomic Swap is initiated and completed

Thanks CryptoKeeper802! We appreciate the support!

Here's a recent announcement we made on Twitter regarding our upcoming Atomic Swap wallet: https://twitter.com/altcoin_io/status/929870942435663877

It's an introduction to trading altcoins on Bittrex specifically but I would recommend that you only trade what you can lose to start as things move very fast in crypto.

Thanks for the feedback dustboy. We might consider running a signature campaign here that would allow for any referral to be counted but for the time being we have a minimum of 10 referrals to be collected in order to receive trading fees from those individuals. If you have any other feedback for us feel free to share.
